"Yes, of course." I'll do my best to punish Ray Karen. ”
Thank you, Chancellor Gilbert.
After returning to the castle via the Gilchrist family from Ray's Mansion, I greeted Chancellor Gilbert with a report.
Tiara is still at her father's apprenticeship, but Sail hasn't finished her report yet, and she hasn't changed her clothes yet. Arthur was with us until Captain Alan, who was once part of the Gilchrist family, returned to the king's house. He's listening to the report to Chancellor Gilbert, along with Captain Column, who's waiting for us in front of the room.
It's been a long time since we first started talking about today's school meeting, and then we started talking about Ray's visit. At first, Steyl assisted me in explaining some of the things that happened at school, but I also let Ryer talk about when he interrupted Mr. Thomas at work.
Thomas's amnesia, Ray's agitation and rampaging abilities, and Arthur and Captain Alan's safe passage of time have disturbed him until he wakes up. And... finally, that Ray also recognized [Thomas] 's existence. When the carriage looked calm and told me that he was ready to be shot at any time, Prime Minister Gilbert nodded slowly and asked, "It was good to be safe."
When he told me that Ray's abilities had run rampant, he must have worried me because his slightly open, slit-eyed eyes were directed straight to me. Thanks to Stale for stopping me and Captain Arthur and Alan for taking quick action on Ray.
“Starting tomorrow, let's also look into the justifiable charges against the Anchors and the Ray Karen connection." The prediction of Pride that the school itself has collapsed due to Anchorson's transfer of school management to a third party is official. "Ankerson has already confessed to most of his residual crimes.... there are parts of your mouth that are a little too slippery, and it seems that you will be judged for the crimes that were committed more than six years ago. If you slap it, it will be difficult for people to get dust out."
"I agree with that."
Steyl would have dared to lower his voice to Prime Minister Gilbert's gentle voice.
Holding down the black edge of the glasses, the face glared with a pitch-black glance was sure to say, "How can you put yourself on the shelf?" Chancellor Gilbert knew that, returning a smile to Steyl. I also smile at the two people who are silently holding the conversation for about two round trips.
Not only is Anchorson involved in this school, but he's also involved in some of Ray's parents' cases, as long as they're in the game.
An anchorson wanted to hide Ray's existence in order to hide the fact that he gave the President's authority to his son without permission, but apparently he had already dug some graves. The inquisitors said they knew that Anchorson had a hidden child.
As a result of the survey, it seems that there were many suspicions that the number of employees had increased at one time since six years ago, and that the tutor was secretly entering and exiting Anchorson's residence. Besides, I checked to see if Anchorson was doing anything wrong in the territory, and I heard that the Karen family case and disciplinary action had also been taken.... the Inquisitor and the Guard were excellent.
Chancellor Gilbert did a good job manipulating the information and slowing it down, but we don't need to do that anymore. I'm sure the guards will interrogate and summon Ray.
"It was a shame that [Thomas] lost Ray's memory..."
After explaining the status of the guard's investigation, Chancellor Jilbert lowered his voice and quietly frowned.
I also sink my gaze into it with a short affirmation as my shoulders drop a little. Fortunately, Ray was convinced, but it didn't change that it wasn't the reunion he really wanted. If I had remembered sooner, I could have had the reunion I wanted, and my chest was squeezed. What he has done for me is truly insignificant.
"... not uncommon for slave victims." Ryer was brainwashed in particular. Some people forget not only the memories of their slavery, but everything. Human trafficking organizations are to blame. ”
Stale, who was gently putting his hand on my shoulder, looked at me worriedly.
I smiled back, thanking him for taking care of me after raising my face to the ground. I know. Rhea isn't the only one who's lost his memory of the past. Mothers are also doing all they can to help. Some people can go home after even brainwashing.
However, Rhea and Ray didn't meet until today because they didn't have any connection to anyone else.
"I think Jillvale. You knew that from the moment you actually grabbed it, didn't you?" I think he has amnesia. You were the one who sat with my mother on the trial of the slave victim. "
"Oh, my God. I can't say..." I was able to assume that. At a time when slave victims have been thrown into battle, brainwashing is a possible evil, and it's not unusual, as Steyl says. ”
“According to Thomas, he was losing his memory around the trial?”
Chancellor Gilbert shrugs his shoulders at Steyl's sharp words of suspicion.
I closed my eyes for the first time, and when I opened them again, the light blue eyes reflected me and the stele in sequence. Steyl narrowed his eyebrows in an unhappy mood as he returned it with a calm expression.
Chancellor Gilbert, who certainly remembered Liar's face during the trial, is likely to have noticed that his appearance during the trial was strange. There is no law in Japan that can lighten a crime by saying, "I don't remember." "Oh, I see." Even if Mr. Thomas complained of amnesia, the outcome of the trial would not have changed.
"... well, let's admit that I was a little worried about you." However, he was not the only slave victim he protected at the time. Did you know that His Majesty, His Highness the King, and His Royal Highness the Regent of West were extremely busy at the end of the recapture line? Even in the records before the probation, he lacked judgment because he wanted a place to eat and live, and because his real name was unknown. Most of the time, no one was stupid enough to speak their name while they were brainwashing. ”
Brainwashing is not the place to hear, but after the brainwashing is solved, the court issues a treatment and turns it to probation.
If we did it in that chaotic situation, it would be hard to see whether Chancellor Gilbert the Rock lost his memory in any detail. At least if he had simply been brought to trial as a criminal, the decision would have been different, but they were simply brainwashed victims.
Stale's face turned to Chancellor Gilbert, who gave back the rationale palely.
Finally, if I was to say, "Isn't it necessary to cut off expectations by deliberately using words that could have been assumed by Master Steyl and Master Pride?", I would have tied my arms together and tied my mouth together. Indeed, when we heard of the slave victim, we could all have assumed that degree of grief. If Chancellor Gilbert himself could not prove it, there was nothing he could do about it.
When Chancellor Gilbert returned the smile to Steyl, who hadn't come back.
Conkon.
The sound of a light knock leaped into the room.
Jack, the guardsman standing in front of the door, checked the other side of the door, as everyone looked in the direction of the noise. I'll have a word back to him who told me who came. It was Captain Alan who thanked me by saying, "Excuse me."
We will work hard for Captain Alan, who returned from the Gilchrist family with his feet. Arthur, who thanked him for his hard work, left the room in turns. Arthur, who had stayed longer than expected, quickly returned to the Knights' Practice Range.
Excuse me for interrupting the meeting, but I will return Prime Minister Gilbert to Captain Alan. I turned to him, who was standing next to Captain Column, and said, "It was just right," and he briefly explained what we had been talking about.
Although Captain Alan was not sure why he explained to himself in the guard position, he was convinced by the flow of talk about Ryer's amnesia.
Chancellor Gilbert questioned Captain Alan's expression that he had finally gained his command.
"By the way, how was it?" I believe Captain Alan and Captain Karam were among those who captured Ryer before his capture. "
"It was different from when I was captured." Thomas was a kind man I met today, but when I captured him, he was either militant or unforgiving, and he was a different person. "
At the time of arrest, that is, before trial.
Captain Column raised his eyebrows in amazement as he waved at the question from Chancellor Gilbert. Even if Captain Column hasn't met Thomas, he has met Ryer.
It seems that the lack of mercy in the battle was only due to being brainwashed as a slave. Even so, there is a chest irritation that is clearly said to be [someone else]. That's all, brainwashing in Radhiya was terrifying.
Steyl murmured, "In other words, I wonder if it wasn't even Thomas under [brainwashing]...", while Prime Minister Gilbert also attached the second joint of his finger to his mouth to think about it.
While he was brainwashed, he was used as a weapon to fight, and he was a different person. It is common for there to be no memory during brainwashing. Did you lose your memory when brainwashing was solved, or did you lose your memory when you were brainwashed... did something happen before you became a slave? I'm sure that's what the genius Steyl and Chancellor Gilbert knew.
"If I could at least understand the trigger, there might still be something Thomas can do..."
Sail, who bites his lower lip regretfully while saying so, still thinks of them.
However, even Ray's happy ending in the game didn't say that Rheer had recovered his memory. At least I can't get it back by the end of time or by the amount of time I've encountered Ray. It wasn't a disease or illness, and even Arthur couldn't cure it.
Gilbert slowly turned his face toward the clock in the room as he glanced at the stiffened staircase between his brows.
Oh, I think we're running out of time. Asked to change the air, Steyl raised his eyes to the clock. I had to go back to assistant Stale.
"... it wasn't the reunion she wanted, but Ray didn't have to keep looking for Rhea." Thanks to Chancellor Gilbert and the others, I think I will be able to live my life properly after being punished. I thought I was going to see Thomas in the future. "
Thank you very much. and once again convey our gratitude to Chancellor Gilbert.
When told to separate stagnant stories with a bright voice, Prime Minister Gilbert returned with a soft voice saying, "No, I'm nothing." The softness of an adult voice reminded Thomas a little.
So here I am, and Steil wakes up from the sofa. Chancellor Gilbert turned sideways to see if he wanted to go, but he quickly picked up Steyl's intentions and said, “I still want to check on the school.”
Chancellor Gilbert smiled with some joy at the gaze from Steyl, returning his deep thanks while hanging on the sofa. Maybe there's something to thank for inviting Stale to come with us. Continuing, Uncle West was in a meeting with his mother, so he told him to go to his father.
"No problem, I have to go before that."... it's about time. "
After thanking Captain Column and Captain Alan for their good work, he laughed at me again just before leaving the room, saying, "Dinner again."
After Jack dives through the open door alone, the door closes again without a sound. Marie, a dedicated maid, quickly retrieved Sail's cup.
If Lotte continues to make me a new cup of tea, I and Chancellor Gilbert will be gazing into the steaming cup. I waited for Prime Minister Gilbert's words as the smell of tea calmed my nostrils and my feelings.... but...
………………………………
"......? Um...... Prime Minister Gilbert......?"
There has been no word from Chancellor Gilbert for a long time.
After brewing tea and taking each other a cup to taste. Normally, we get a word from Chancellor Gilbert here, but we don't get in now.
I thought for a moment that I was still thinking, but Prime Minister Gilbert stared straight at me with his usual smile on his face. No matter how I try, it's not the face I'm thinking about. I thought I might have done something to make you angry, but I couldn't think of anything this time.
Even when I tried to jump into the rampaged Ray, Steel stopped me, and I only told him that Arthur and Captain Alan had stopped me earlier. Like a mannequin, Chancellor Gilbert was like a mannequin who would not break his smile in one hand.
Not only me, but also Captain Column and Lotte felt a little bit confused in the room.
I was worried that I might move from the seat opposite Chancellor Gilbert to the seat next to me. At last, Prime Minister Gilbert let out a slightly louder voice saying, "Okay." After a long wait, I unexpectedly sat back on the sofa and straightened my posture. Yes, Chancellor Gilbert's smile remained still as he slowly landed the cup on the table as his voice turned around.
Pride-sama...... I need to talk to you about something [confidential].
Picking up, the air stretched out again at that moment changed again.
Marie and Lotte quickly cleaned up the empty dishes that had been mannered by Chancellor Gilbert. Also, Prime Minister Gilbert's gaze was directed at the Guardian Knight who stood behind me immediately after joining me.
As I looked back at the Kingsguard and asked for my agreement, Captain Column and Captain Alan both lowered their heads at the same time before moving. "Confidential"... I mean, they're leaving the room again because I'm the only one who shouldn't hear them.
Jack, the Guard, opens the door, and Marie and Lotte, his maidservants, open the door. And as the Kingsguard and Knight both exited in sequence, Chancellor Gilbert's smile remained unchanged.
I don't know if I'm angry, but my palms are wet on my lap as if I'm being pressed by a strange sign. I can see why Chancellor Gilbert didn't say anything until just now. It was definitely waiting for Stale to get away. In other words, you can't even speak to my one-armed Stills, not just the guards.
Finally, Jack closes the door from the outside, and the complete silence dominates the room. The space where we could hear nothing but each other's breathing sounds was almost stuffy, even though it was inside our own room.
"... so what's the story?"
Chancellor Gilbert, and. Stay like a king girl and cut the story out of me this time.
I've spoken to Chancellor Gilbert in confidence, but I've never been distracted from the Kingsguard or Steyl. When I suddenly turned to face him with an unexpected throat, the smile fixed by Chancellor Gilbert finally loosened.
“I'm sorry for the suddenness,” said Chancellor Gilbert, who broke his hips deeply, suppressing his voice with an unusually serious glance.
"I will be frank with you....... Rhea's memories. Would you like to reclaim your pride?"
"?... of course."
Following on from the unexpected story, I can see that my eyes are getting round.
I thought something had happened to my father or mother about school, but it seems to be different. Rhea's memory... maybe she worried that I'd do something stupid again to find it. Of course, I want to return to it, but I haven't forgotten my original purpose and position. I hadn't remembered the last target yet.
With all due honesty, I once asked Chancellor Gilbert to give me his next return. Without ever turning a blind eye from me, he said, "Please listen to me calmly." My heart echoes quickly and naturally in a voice that seems to be more than just a shame.
"Actually, I talked to someone." According to that person's hand... it may even be able to awaken Lyre's memory. ”
"️ Is it true......?"
I consciously suppressed my voice, which seemed to jump up inadvertently, and took a breath.
I pressed my throat to hold myself down loudly or almost squeezed, and closed my mouth tightly once. Even though it was a desperate murder, Chancellor Gilbert put his index finger in front of his mouth to call attention.
As Ryukyu and I nodded and waited, Chancellor Gilbert's voice became so low that we had to listen.
"However, only the first princess of Pride could negotiate." Right now, I am inviting you to the royal guest room in secret. It is not definite whether the negotiation will be realized, but it is up to Pride....... Would you like to go? "
I'm going.
Chancellor Gilbert shows me that I can still turn back now, and I can't put my hair in.
Understand why Chancellor Gilbert has been so cautious so far. In any case, that's the kind of Special Ability.
For Ray... or for me, who will be distracted, Chancellor Gilbert gave me a handful.
I know very well what he is doing to cure his wife of Maria's disease. It is not an exaggeration to say that you are familiar with the most special abilities information in the country. No way... I don't think it's just Chancellor Gilbert right now, but it's still so much to hide.
Still, I can't overlook it if it's possible. Now that I don't know if the negotiation will come true, it's definitely worth jumping into. Thomas is definitely a good man, but he and Ray wanted to know what he remembered and get it back.
For a few seconds, I didn't take my eyes off of Prime Minister Gilbert, who was so close to being sucked in by a serious glance, that he nodded, "I see."
Chancellor Gilbert, who stood up from the sofa almost silently, followed me with a hip up. Before opening the door, let the Kingsguard and Kingsguard wait in front of the guest room. And without saying anything about this, just saying "I will receive visitors" and Prime Minister Gilbert pushes me again and again. Don't worry, I have that kind of readiness as a royal family.
Chancellor Gilbert, who had a serious expression until just now, nodded and opened the door, was always smiling.
They open the way by explaining to the Kingsguard Knights who greeted them that they would be welcoming visitors. As they continued behind me, I could feel the unusual air, and Captain Alan, Captain Column, and Jack remained silent all the time. Descend the stairs, cross the corridor to the Royal Palace. For a moment, I was wondering what I would do if I met Steyl and Tiara, but it was Prime Minister Rock Jilbert's skill, and I was able to reach the room without seeing anyone.
It was the smallest room in the royal palace.
Rather than talking to dignitaries, it is a room for waiting for visitors who are not officially invited. I haven't used it either.
There were already two guards standing silently in front of the door, so there must be someone inside. Chancellor Gilbert, who was merely a "guest" on the outside, did not confirm to me his second readiness.
After a gentle knock, he opens the door to me with no reply. Instead of being as big as usual, Prime Minister Gilbert held me in a clearance that was enough to fit everyone in, and urged me in with a smile.
Apparently, he was going to wait in front of the room just like the Kingsguard. It really is up to me.
I swallow it in my mouth and do as I always do. The expression was not nervous, but a smile that welcomed the usual visitors.
“Excuse me, I'm the First Princess Pride Royal Ivy,” she said, stretching her legs across the door.
Chairs and tables. Two empty cups and a teapot. Rooms without windows are coloured with paintings instead.... but there are no people.
I entered the room to sew through the gap of the open door, but no one was in the small room without looking around. Thinking that I could not wait for the wrong toilet, only the door opened by Chancellor Gilbert could be closed behind me.
"Make sure you check the back."
"Kaaaaaaa"
The voice I heard behind me unexpectedly screamed.
If I pressed my chest with both hands and looked back, I understood that I was hiding in the shadow of the open door. As soon as I screamed without hesitation, Chancellor Gilbert asked with a gentle voice, "Are you okay?", but my breathing was so shallow that I couldn't return it immediately.
When I gave my mouth a few times and said, "I'm just about to fall," the call came to a halt. Even after the fear of the guards entering the room is gone, the heart only becomes fierce and restless. I suspect someone who has waited so many times while my breathing became so intense that I heard noises.
I thought it might have been a trap for a moment, but it was definitely different. I dared not return it to Chancellor Gilbert until I replied.... as if to hide your presence from my Guardian Knight and Guard Jack outside.
Holding down my beating heart, I'm now going to turn my whole body around. Keep your voice down and call out to the person with extreme caution so that you can't hear them beyond the door.
"Uncle Vest...?"
Vest Royal Ivy.
The regent, who was proud of Japan, was standing there, one arm of the queen.
